Comment on MP raises security fears over a Chinese firm's involvement in North Sea windfarm developments
RobotToaster@mander.xyz 7 months agoThe company appears to just be a manufacturer? The article doesn’t specify but I assume it’s not intended for them to have control of them?
Personally I would rather they were all made in the UK, to support what’s left of British manufacturing, but the article says it is part of a “Strategic Investment Model scheme for international developers to build wind farms”. It seems bizarre, to exclude domestic companies entirely like that.

It probably comes down to people not being willing to pay twice as much for electricity if the infrastructure can be acquired for half the price elsewhere.
